This ominous, hovering object, an apple with an ear and a hand, permanently stuck in a "thumbs up" gesture, exists only to hear and to approve. Although it is inanimate, the human ear and hand imply a consciousness. At exhibitions, the visitors were given the opportunity to write a message on a piece of paper and put it inside the ear of the apple as a way to vent without any feedback other than a "thumbs up".
